Description
Here’s a detailed look at the Nissan Juke 1.6?Hybrid N?Connecta 5?door Auto—a stylish and efficient small SUV blending clever hybrid tech with a high level of equipment:
Powertrain & Performance
Engine: A self-charging hybrid combining a 1.6?L petrol engine with a compact electric motor and multi-mode automatic gearbox, delivering a combined output of 143?bhp (141?PS).
Acceleration: It sprints from 0–62?mph in about 10.1 seconds, with a modest top speed around 103?mph.
Fuel Economy & Emissions
WLTP Combined: Claimed around 58–59?mpg with CO? emissions near 109–110?g/km.
Real-world Usage: Expect mid- to late-40s mpg in daily driving; however, owners report achieving 50–60?mpg on longer or more efficient drives when using the one-pedal "e-Pedal" regeneration effectively.
Driving Experience
The hybrid system includes multiple drive modes—ev, series hybrid, and parallel—to optimize efficiency across conditions.
The e-Pedal mode enhances regenerative braking, capable of slowing the car to around 5?mph with minimal use of the brake pedal.
Chassis tuning compensates for the hybrid system’s extra mass, offering composed handling, though ride may feel firmer over bumps.
Interior, Space & Tech
Equipment Highlights: N?Connecta trim brings wireless charging, Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, satellite navigation, dual-zone climate control, and a digital instrument panel.
Packaging: Hybrid battery placement reduces boot space to ~354?L—down from 422?L in the non-hybrid variant. Rear seats and overall space feel tighter, especially with reduced windows increasing the back-seat's enclosed feel.
Pros & Considerations
Advantages
Efficient and smarter driving: Noticeably better efficiency than the 1.0-litre DiG-T option, especially in traffic or longer commutes.
